Representatives of the People's Front voiced preliminary results of the "Everything for Victory" project at the RUSSIA EXPO. Over the course of two years, more than 4 million people participated in the project, as reported by Mikhail Kuznetsov, Executive Committee Chairman of the People's Front.

Thanks to the efforts of caring individuals, 14 billion rubles were collected. This allowed assistance to over 510 units, providing soldiers with more than seven thousand quadcopters, fourteen thousand radios, nine thousand sights, over three thousand generators, two hundred thirty ATVs, twenty-five thousand body armors, seventy-eight thousand first aid kits, and several thousand vehicles. Additionally, regional branches of the People's Front received over eight million items, including dressing sets, warm clothing, and more.

"These are ordinary people from across the country — civil servants, doctors, teachers, and many others. They cannot stay away from the lives of the soldiers, they cannot refrain from helping them. Thanks to such people, this astronomical sum was collected over two years. To them, we extend our deepest gratitude — they do not cease to help, they do not stop despite fatigue and difficulties. They stand with our soldiers until victory," emphasized Mikhail Kuznetsov.

Addressed collections on the "Everything for Victory" portal greatly aid numerous soldiers, highlighted military correspondent Yuri Podolyaka. Together with the People's Front, he raised 500 million rubles for warm clothing for the military, equipping over 35 thousand fighters. Currently, the correspondent is raising funds for the purchase of radio electronic warfare equipment — by June 13, donations for this purpose totaled 685 million rubles.

"I believe that there will always be a need for this, because each of these devices saves lives. Therefore, this is extremely important," noted Yuri Podolyaka.

Within the "Everything for Victory" project, the "Kulibin Club" operates — this is an initiative that assists in selecting, testing, and setting up serial production of the best military developments by domestic civilian engineers. This includes the creation of EW (Electronic Warfare) systems, radio reconnaissance, drones and other armaments and equipment. For instance, Russian engineers have developed a tourniquet with plastic fasteners visible on X-rays to facilitate doctors' work, as well as anti-thermal suits that are several times cheaper than foreign analogs. Civilian manufacturers' developments are tested on test ranges, field-tested, and the most successful ones are eventually put into service based on feedback from soldiers. In total, over 150 devices have been tested during the project's existence.

Another development of the People's Front is the "Radar" application. It allows reporting sightings of drones, explosions, rockets, unidentified suspicious objects, and activities of sabotage and reconnaissance groups. All reports are promptly forwarded for processing by responsible government officials. Since its launch, the application has been installed by over 515 thousand people, leading to the elimination of more than a hundred drones. "Radar" will continue to evolve by adding new functionalities.

The youth wing of the People's Front organized a cyber brigade that combats enemy actions on social networks. It has fifty-eight thousand active users. Based on their reports, the brigade has blocked 142 YouTube Shorts videos, over a thousand accounts and 130 groups on VKontakte and Odnoklassniki social networks, 105 public pages, and fifteen accounts on the Telegram messenger. These communities were shaping a negative image of the Russian army and state while spreading false information among Russian users. Specifically, the cyber brigade uncovered groups involved in inciting unrest in the Republics of Bashkortostan and Dagestan.
